Below are some of the causes: &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) <\/strong>occurs when calcium crystals collect in the inner ear, sending incorrect signals to your brain about where your body is oriented in space.<\/li><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/househearing.com\">Meniere\u2019s disease<\/a><\/strong> is an inner ear disorder that causes episodes of vertigo, hearing loss and tinnitus.<\/li><li><strong>Vestibular neuritis <\/strong>is a term for inflammation of the nerves of the inner ear.<\/li><li><strong>Certain medications <\/strong>like diuretics, aminoglycoside antibiotics, cisplatin and salicylates can trigger vertigo.<\/li><li><strong>Head injuries <\/strong>can cause trauma to the balance system.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Central Vertigo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Central vertigo is caused by a problem with the brain, typically the brain stem or cerebellum.

Eliminating stressors and finding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/blog\/click-here-happiness\/202001\/how-relieve-manage-and-overcome-stress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ways to manage stress<\/a> can help reduce the frequency of severity of vertigo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone manages stress differently, but many people find going for a walk, meditating, exercising or listening to calming music to be helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting Sufficient Sleep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lack of sleep can trigger a bad mood, headaches and vertigo. Practice good sleep hygiene by sticking to a consistent sleep schedule even on weekends, avoiding screens before bedtime and not drinking caffeine late in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about managing vertigo or to talk to a balance expert, call The House Institute today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you ever feel as if the room is spinning around you even when you\u2019re perfectly still?
